Is there any legal way to get a Celebi in the mainline games (not Go) today?
Just the 3DS VC edition of Crystal.You also need the Poketransporter and then Pokemon Bank to move it to Pokemon Home.
>>59433707>PoketransporterIt's unavailable for new users. So basically it's impossible lol
>>59433705You mean you don't already have one?
>>59433721bait used to be believable
>>59433721Hacked 3DSs can still connect to the internet. Hack your 3DS and install Poketransporter. If you have Crystal just get Celebii there. If you don't and don't want to install it because it's "stealing" to not pay for it, then you'll need a copy of Emerald, a gen 4 game, and a gen 5 game. Use the ACE exploit in Emerald version to create a copy of a gen 3 Celebii. Send it up to gen 4, then gen 5, then Poketransporter. If you don't want to do any of this, then your only other option is to buy a used 3DS that already has all of this installed on it.
>>59433826You might as well inject if thats the case
>>59433826Damn. I'm trying to collect all legendariesband mythicals. Gen1 is fine, they're in Let's Go. Mew is easy as well. Now Celebi is fucked up
>>59434196You're kinda out of luck, then. Along with Celebi, the mythicals Deoxys, Victini, and Zarude also don't have any permanent availability in any of the Switch games; you could only get them from time-limited event distributions. Since you don't want to transfer them from Go or Bank, your only options are either hoping they're given out in Winds / Waves, or finding other players willing to trade them away.
>>59434266Deoxys is available in FrLG on Switch.
>>59434022No shit, Sherlock. I was pointing out the absurdity of trying to get a "legal" Celebii.
>>59434427You can also inject a legal celebi without doing all that retarded shit.
>>59433705Only two ways:1. VC Crystal. Requires Poke Transporter and Pokemon Bank. If you don't have that, you will need to hack your 3DS and install them.2. JP Colosseum Bonus Disc. You can hex edit the disc's ISO to work with EN save files of Colosseum too, but that requires a softloader like Swiss. You still need to complete a Colosseum save file either way though.
